I wonder if this one also has the T7500 installed? By mistake of course.

There was a pretty large thread about this at SD. If anyone sees the $524.99 price in Michigan, I'd appreciate knowing. They were most commonly $599. Would like to go in for a pm, but doubt the $524.99 price is very common...

There are a bunch in the KC area for $525. Thank you OP


I just got mine home, it has HDMI and it comes with 64 bit installed and 32 bit on the recovery cd if you prefer it instead. I'm doing the recovery backup now.

They said it is now a gift card rebate, they send it to you after you are hooked up. I think they were full of it, but I could not argue as I could not download the coupon.

Confirmed $524.99 at the Best Buy in Tulsa, Midtown location.

Thanks I snagged one for a friend. If he doesn't want it I can return it unopened no problem. Or I might keep it for myself! I could use the HDMI out on my TV.

edit: now even they have even less I got one for me too

There's a bunch of stores in Southern California that still have a few left. I think there's about 5 in Beaumont and a few at the Mira Loma and Moreno Valley stores as well. Some how got the comcast coupon to still work at the store in Beaumont, out the door for $464.

There are 9 at the Wyomissing, PA store and they have the $524.99 price. Also, I scored the Vista Ultimate upgrade for 69.95 so don't forget to ask about that. You can always resell it if you don't want to install it.
